So I posted up on craiglist looking for fruit woods. I already had a little cherry so I didn't include it. But I got a guy about 20 minutes from me that had 4 big cherry trees he said I could have. 1 was dead and had already been topped/limbed, so I took that one down the other day. It was partially rotten, but I was able to salvage a little bit of it for smoking. The other 3 trees will be coming down this spring when the weather gets a little nicer out (too windy and too much snow to mess with it right now). So I'm going to have LOTS of cherry. Almost too much of it to use to smoke. When I drop the other 3 trees I'll probably do a wood exchange or 2 on here
.
Also, my brother has a hickory that he is going to take down. I've begged him to let me have it, so whenever he takes that down I'm going to drive up (3 hours) and bring all the wood back. I may do a hickory exchange as well depending on how much I have, but I know that I'm going to be using quite a bit of it this spring when I smoke 12 butts for my wedding reception.
Still looking for fruit wood though (mostly want apple, but any others would work too). Does anybody else know of other websites or ways to "score" fruit woods?
